Shi Jianyi loves the sun. Lin Xinian doesn't.
Everyone knows it.
They have nothing to do with each other and never get in one another's way.
Yet people keep comparing them.
During PE, Shi Jianyi likes playing basketball. He likes the feeling of sweating on the court, the cool breeze against his overheated body, and the freedom of not having to listen to anyone else.
Lin Xinian, on the other hand, doesn't like it. During PE, he prefers to stay in the classroom and work toward his future. He likes not having to put on an act in front of others, and being alone, without having to think about anyone else.
Lin Xinian dislikes the sun because he's used to the night.
Once you've grown accustomed to the dark, facing the sunlight again can be painful.
In the second semester of their junior year, Class 6 noticed that their class president had started showing up on the field a lot.
He used to hate sitting out in the sun.
Looking at the aloof top student in front of him, Shi Jianyi laughed. "Didn't you used to hate the sun?"
Lin Xinian smiled too, leaned close to Shi Jianyi's ear, and teased him. "It was never the sun I liked. It was you."
Theme: No matter how much you like someone, nothing will come of it if you never confess.
